Hey guys,I was trying to make some sense about the earthquake spell, and things didn't seem to be adding up. Am I missing something, or not doing the math correctly haha? What is described in the description/stats of the earthquake spell seems to be different than what is observed in game play. I will be focusing on walls here:

A lvl1 earthquake spell says it does 6% damage to remaining hitpoints, and does 4x damage to walls. This can be either interpreted as taking 24% damage away from walls, or taking 6% damage away from walls 4 times (0.94 ^ 4 = 0.78075, so that would be equivalent to 21.925%. I will show both in this article.

Here it is, the moment we all have been waiting for. The first sneak peek is here & its sure to SHOCK you!#1 Sneak Peek

#6 Sneak Peek

Readjusted strengths, smarter defending, and stronger abilities? That’s right, we’re talking about the new improved Heroes! The King and Queen are now much smarter on defense, have distinct strengths and weaknesses, and their abilities are more important than ever.

To understand these adjustments and the reasons behind it, check Chief Pat's interview with Jonas from the Clash development team at http://supr.cl/herochanges

Some points to take into consideration:

1. Heroes can no longer be lured out to some corner of the village and get smashed there. Now, they will become like a defensive building (they're still not defenses, they will not be targeted as such) and will only attack troops that step inside their territory; if a troop tries to lure them out of that territory, they will retreat.

2. Hitpoints and damage for the Queen and hitpoints for the King have been slightly increased at lower levels. However, hero hitpoints and damage have been decreased at higher levels in order to balance heroes on defense and allow for stronger abilities.

3. Hero Abilities now improve much more significantly with each new ability level so the best way to make your hero stronger when attacking is to increase their ability level!

Please Note: Despite the fact that the HP has been decreased at higher levels, the new abilities will compensate and balance those adjustments.

During the video you can see that Jonas refers to the Barbarian King as the "tank" specialist and this is because they will now have new roles:

Barbarian King

✔ His damage has been reduced, but he now can heal himself greatly when using the Iron Fist ability (you can see in the video the health points being increased upon the activation of his ability).

✔ The Barbarian horde summoned by Iron Fist has doubled in size to cause even more mayhem.

✔ Use Iron Fist at the right time to help the King take more damage than he ever could before

Archer Queen

✔ Her hitpoints have been reduced in later levels, but the Queen now gains a tremendous damage boost while her Royal Cloak ability is active.

✔ The duration of Royal Cloak has been greatly increased in lower levels to help make sure the Queen has enough time to land her most powerful of shots.

✔ Use Royal Cloak at the right time to help the Queen hit important targets harder than she ever could before!

So in other words, their powers have been balanced and some elements replaced with new and stronger abilities.

And this is it, the last in the series of sneak peeks and you know what that means, update's just around the corner!

#3 Sneak PeekHey Chief! Been wanting to keep a separate layout for your War Base? Soon you can!!!!

#3a Forum exclusive Sneak PeekEven if you're upgrading your Inferno Tower or X-Bow in your village, you can toggle between different modes in your War Base.

The update is now live.

Here is the complete list on what's new in this update:

War Base layout and War Base Edit Mode!

✔ Been wanting to keep a separate layout for your War Base? Now you can!

✔ Your War Base layout now has a life of its own and will persist from war to war without the need to touch your regular village.

✔ War Base Edit Mode is available on the Clan War map during preparation day only. Layouts are still locked during battle day.

✔ Upgrades in your village are still automatically applied to your War Base, but remember to place any new buildings into your War Base layout!

✔ Even if you're upgrading your Inferno Tower or X-Bow in your village, you can toggle between different modes in your War Base.

Clan Wars stats improvements!

✔ Improved Clan war info pages under the blue star button are now outfitted with war related stats instead of general clan stats.

✔ See information about total war attacks, defenses and war stars won per member in these Clan war info pages.

There is a official forum post from Supercell telling us what they are planning to do in the next update to make Clan Wars better for us. This was within the feedback thread having thousands of user postings. These are some of the most talked about features that a lot of players would like to see added to Clash of Clans in the very near future.

Save base layoutsThis is probably one of the most sought after features that everyone would like to see real soon - especially now that Clan Wars are here. It would make it much easier to have a few set base designs that we can switch back and forth to - depending on if we are farming or trophy pushing/in a war.Dump Clan Castle troopsThis is another great feature that should be implemented into the game. Ever have someone in your clan donate troops that you or someone else didn't want in your war bases clan castle? It would be great to be able to dump those troops in favor of more powerful, effective troops.Claiming an opponent on Preparation DaysAnother requested feature that we all hope Supercell adds to Clash of Clans. A lot of clans go about claiming the bases that they would like to attack in different ways - this would make it easier for you to do so. It would be great if we can claim a base right on the war map, informing fellow clan mates that we would like to attack said base.What do you think would make Clan Wars better for you?
